End Breed Specific Legislation

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

End BSL so that innocent dogs are not discriminated in their looks alone. Dogs that are no public threat are being killed or punished. Judge on temperament and not a tape measure!
BSL has been proven to make no difference in protecting the public. This law targets loving family pets that have done no wrong. The law has made no difference in public protection, just heartache for many families.
